Top rated tour even for bad swimmers 🤩 - What an amazing adventure! It was beautiful Absolutely great tour by boat - we are taken out to a large sandbar where we can practice snorkeling. That was great for me since I’m not a good swimmer and I’ve been snorkeling before in Mexico which was much rougher waters but it was years ago. We stopped by a shallow sandbar, and I had a chance to practice that helped a lot. Making sure my mask fits snuggly. The water would come in. The hardest part for me was that there were a few too many people. There were two boats docked together next to each other, and it didn’t help that most of the people were Japanese and we couldn’t communicate. Just a few too many people swimming in front of me flipping their feet in my face as I struggle to stay calm and very deep water. But all in all it was very fun. That was only a small part of it. It’s a family run business and everybody was incredibly fun and friendly. They’re all young ,fun and beautiful people. Food was served and you could purchase beer & wine along with free nonalcoholic drinks. A beer did give me the courage to swim /snorkel with my life jacket on! The staff was great helping s every step of the way.

Fun family snorkel adventure - The boat crew and Captain Robin did a great job with our tour this week! Their instructions were clear and they were super friendly. Robin went out of his way to make sure we saw turtles and gorgeous fish during our snorkel session, and we had a blast playing around the sandbar as well. Plenty of snacks and drinks available, too!

A+ Crew provides amazing experience! - Capt Bruce’s team was professional yet fun, relaxed and approachable. Right away I felt like I was in the hands of caring professionals who would assure that our experience was fun, interesting and safe. We had a really windy, fairly rough water day, but we still paddled and snorkeled, saw fish and sea turtles and just had an incredible day on the water. Highly recommend!

Wonderful time on the sand bar - We had a fantastic time on the tour. Enjoyed paddle boarding and loved the snorkeling. We saw quite a few turtles both swimming and hanging out on the reef. Lots of cool fish to see as well. The crew was great. Very friendly and made everyone feel welcome!

Great way to spend the morning. - Fantastic! We went out Saturday morning. I think we were with Joe, Dan and Jeff? I’m not sure about the names but they were great and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. We got a chance to see several sea turtles and lots of fish. They pointed out lots of things to us and the captain went out of his way to make me and my young first time snorkeler feel safe and have a good experience. After snorkeling we had a chance to paddle board and play on the sand bar. Great way to spend the morning. Big thanks to our crew they were terrific we had a great time.

Great family time - We enjoyed playing on the sandbar with the provided water activities. My daughter loved paddleboarding and playing volleyball. We also had fun splashing with water guns. There were plenty of snacks and drinks. My only issue was the snorkeling part was too controlled/crowded. We had to go as a big group and stay together in a very small area. I was kicked in the head multiple times by inexperienced swimmers. I would have liked more time to snorkel and the ability to spread out.
